Emo-sapiens

So, I just remembered some Emo-aquaintances and then I also remembered Bill Bailey's little song that reflects just about every emo I've met perfectly...

Just as a reference to those that do not know what an Emo is, it's basically a Goth wannabe. Most of them have suportive parents or family, yet they feel that no-one understands them. It's not an adolecent thing only, it's a sub-culture now. You might have seen a few; greasy hair, dyed black (if it's not the natural color), combed down to cover just half the face trying to emulate the look from the guys that sang "Iris".
They wear nice black clothes that are simply used over and over again until they radiate more than personality -smells are also prominent in certain cases. They try to be "evil" or at least "menacing" but, simply facing downwards and looking up with your eyes is not enough to seriously count as a glare.
They try to act cool and hurt at the same time, trying their best to exude that "misunderstood" angle that they believe they posses.
Some worthy examples of this subculture also speak badly of others in vain attempts at making themselves look, well... capable of something. They even believe it to be so despite staggering evidence to the contrary, and have been known to simply block it with a vacant smile and a surprised expression.

In any case, I'm not saying names, although they will smile vacantly and act surprised they might, just might know who I'm speaking off. To conclude, I'd like to include a video by Bill Bailey that perfectly describes these people.




You pick me up from school,
You attended all my sporting functions.
You bought me a car,
Gave me use on a credit card.

But how can I feel pain?
How can I feel pain?
How can I feel pain
When you're being so supportive?

CLOVERFIELD....

SUCKS. Big time. It wouldn't have been good even if they had not used that crappy "Blair-witch Proyect" hand-camera take. But at least it would have been more bearable. If you go watch it, be prepared for a long series of non-consequential and overly long moments of insightful "interviews" with a bit of ::Gasp!:: foreshadowing on it... oh. And don't bother going to the restrooms before the movie. You won't miss much if you have to go.

A New Year

The last day at orlando was on the 30th of December, I went back to Mexico to finally rest and have some time to myself...

Which involved playing Xbox a lot. I knew Mass Effect was good... but seriously.

Good things have happened lately;

First I spent New Year's Eve at a good friend's house. What else do you need besides good company and good food? :p

Then I started organizing Stacey's visit to Mexico, and as people know, I can't wait to see her soon. She'll be coming around in March, which is when my B-day is happening, so I'm organizing a big get-together at my place for then...

Also, new Anime is coming out, and interesting bits have come to my attention. I'm especially enjoying "Wolf & Spices", "Tengen Toppa" and of course, "Macross Frontier" ... let's see what else the new year brings about.

As for my New Year resolutions? Well, those are private, but if you really must know... you'll have to ask.

-Nya!
